It depends. Most executors will know they are the executor and the deceased will have told them where the will is, who the solicitor is, etc. Some executors will be privy to the contents of the will before the deceased passes, others won't want to know.

Solicitor won't know when the deceased has passed so they depend on the executor notifying them of this and then they release a copy of the will to the executor.

No, the only way an executor could technically rip everyone off would be if they ransacked the house for anything of value, or had bank cards and access to those accounts. This would be a criminal offence though, obviously.

Each beneficiary is notified independently of each other but there is nothing to stop an executor getting them all together and doing it in one go. Could be uncomfortable though.

After sale of house, funds go to solicitor and they arrange transfer to each of the beneficiaries. At no point should an executor be in possession of entire estate.

There is no formal process for reading a will. That's just Hollywood stuff!

So I’d imagine that a solicitor is normally the executor of a will?I mean if a family member is the executor and a beneficiary  could that not lead to problems?

There will be a solicitor alright but the executor is usually a family member or close friend and they can also be a beneficiary.

Does the executor have to disclose how the estate will be divided out between family members?

I mean how will a sibling know they got a fair share.


Yeah that’s what I was thinking....plus what’s the point of an executor when the solicitor can read out the will???

Also what happens if some members of a family are left more than others,would that not cause murder if it’s been disclosed to all the family members?

Executor doesn't have to disclose how the estate is being divided out until probate is complete and individual beneficiaries get their share. At that point, anyone can request a copy of the will, and contest it if they like, but it would be hard to challenge/overturn especially if a solicitor has been involved right the way through.

An executor is more than just a name on a will. They are often left to coordinate funeral, closing out bills/accounts, emptying house, arranging sale of house, etc. I am sure a solicitor could do all that but would be outsourcing it all and charging quite a large fee for it.


But could an executor not rip everyone off after probate and then disappear.....plus does every beneficiary have to be present when a will is disclosed or can this be done privately with each beneficiary?

Obvious reasons if you think the will was fake, unfit state to make the will, under duress etc 

But overall a Will can be contested and many go to the courts if there is a lot of money involved.

My brother in law mother is going through a court case or will be soon. She was living with a guy for 10+ years in a house they bought together. He got cancer and became nasty with it. Without telling her wrote a will for his adult children from his previous marriage to have everything.
She wants to keep the house but his kids want to sell their half as per the will. She cared for him in the last year while his kids stayed in Oz. 
The house is worth circa 1M. 

The general rule in can leave your property to anyone you want under your will. This includes choosing not to give anything to certain people, even family members. The Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975 imposes a qualification to this rule by permitting a spouse, former spouse, child or dependant of a deceased to apply to court for reasonable financial provision if they don't think the deceased’s estate provides enough for them.

The test for reasonable financial provision is deliberately vague. For anyone other than a spouse, it means what is reasonable for their maintenance – so enough for them not to live in poverty, but necessarily not so much that they live in luxury. The court must consider a range of factors when deciding whether or not to make an award, including the financial resources and needs to the applicant, any obligations the deceased may have had towards them, and the financial needs of the other beneficiaries under the estate.
